These Benedictine liqueur candies embody the gourmet tradition of Normandy.

Benedictine liqueur is a French herbal liqueur produced in Fécamp, Normandy. Its origins date back to 1510, when the Benedictine monk Dom Bernardo Vincelli is said to have created an aromatic elixir from 27 herbs and spices at the Abbey of Fécamp. The recipe, lost during the French Revolution, was rediscovered in the 19th century by Alexandre Le Grand, who revived its production. Today, Benedictine is renowned for its complex blend of botanicals and remains a closely guarded secret, known only to a few.

Integrated into these candies, Benedictine liqueur brings a distinctive character, a touch of French heritage, and a complexity of flavor that sets them apart.
